It's been this way since the time of our father's fathers. Even longer. To be Okinawan on the mainland is to be a second class citizen. Mainlanders treat us like this even in our own homes. This is why I was part of the Independence Movement as a teen.
[ooc: the movement is something that occurs regularly down on the Islands. The okinawans want autonomy from Japan. To be their own country. Because the Mainland never seems to have Okinawa's best interests in mind.]
